Solid sole?

The real Philippines

Still salty Nike screwed me out of these.

I've seen plenty of NBA guys rocking the EM's.  Just check the NBA Feet thread.  

Pretty sure Brandon Jennings is rocking the blackouts and not the black spaces.  

I've never actually tried on a pair of EM XI's, I've been so enamored with the Flyknit look that I totally dismissed the EM's as an option.  Now that a bunch of them are being blown out on NDC, I suspect we'll see them show up at the outlets and what not.  Maybe then 

But hey, Kobe was rocking those Milans hard for a bit.  Even without the Zoom, maybe they are comfortable in their own right.

I want to have 12 pairs of Kobe 11 Elite. 9 are here, 3 more to go. 2 will be MC IDs, so 1 more for GR then I am done with shoes for a long time.

My personal Top 3: Pale Horse, Oreo and Black Horse. My least favorite from the 9 that I have is the BHM, white solid sole is just hard to keep it clean.

Solid sole?

From the official images, looks like semi-translucent with gold speckles.

Ugh. That sole IS ridiculous though. Smh.

Masters of Innovation down to $159 on NDC.

EDIT:  Meant to say 159 not 169.

I need that next 20% clearance sale or for them to pop up at an outlet.

I already rock the Bruce Lees, I wouldn't want a second yellow XI  The USA's are down to 139, I'm hesitant about a white shoe but if a clearance sale pops up I might not be able to resist.

That said, I'm patiently waiting for the Black Spaces to drop in price.  Looks like they aren't going anywhere, which is a good sign for me.

Just ordered them from NDC Canada via forwarding service.

These are awesome looking.  Why wouldn't they release these in US? Reminds me of KD 9 gold medals.

Damn, you're really going all in on these EM's. The colorway is clean, but the Philippines 9's are much better.

 

[Mr Dink]

Phillipine 9s remind of a Dakota rug.

Have a look at the NDC UAE website. If there is an EM or Elite model available there that's not available in your neck of the woods, I'm happy to ' oop' you. Bear in mind the exchange rate, $54 for shipping and PayPal's fees. I'm sure you can find it for cheaper with another method, just thought I'd put it out there.

Anyone with the Mentality Grinches? How are they?

 

[battousai701]

Pale horse is not that bad looking in person

Too bad it seems like the tongue and back heel are gonna yellow easily
